Fan on a passive GPU

[Peejay_]

Hey!

I currently have a MSI R5450 graphics card. This card has passive cooling, I recently overclocked the card and I was wondering if it was possible to put a fan on top of the passive cooling, to prevent overheating.
Does anyone have an idea if this could work, and how?

You can download a program such as MSI Afterburner to monitor your temps. If they aren't in the danger zone you won't need a fan

I would try to install a case fan that blows onto your graphics card. If not that, then there are some review articles on the web, and even this website, that show how to install a custom, jerry-rigged fan onto a GPU.

I jerry-rigged a 60mm fan onto my old 6450 with a bit of superglue. Anyone can be a MacGyver!
